Pune Plans Weekly Water Supply Reductions to Conserve Resources Until 2027 Monsoon
Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) is preparing for a possible 10% reduction in daily water supply starting mid-October to conserve water until the 2027 monsoon. The PMC is considering weekly water shutdowns as one option to meet state directives amid drought concerns. Although Pune's reservoirs currently hold over 90% capacity, storage is lower than last year. Final decisions await official government communication, with proposals under review to ensure adequate water supply during summer.
